Like you, I advocate keeping the staff, but also recommend using a corporate m&a mechanism that ensures the staff will be motivated to perform (an "earnout"). http://www.thestartuplawyer.com/mergers-and-acquisitions/how-to-sell-your-blog-for-what-it-is-worth To tell you the truth, the article was inspired by AJ's attempt to sell devlounge.net. He did some (great) work for me about a year ago. Glad to see he got it sold. I just wrote an article about how to ensure a smooth blog ownership transition post-sale.
